The dark point could be a small Snyders or a Jack's Reef, but I'd have to see it in person. Snyders are Hopewell points from the Middle Woodland period, and Jack's Reef are later points from the Late Woodland period. Jack's Reefs are supposed to be the first actual arrowheads, and they are sometimes called intrusive mound points because the people that made them buried their dead in existing Hopewell and Adena mounds. Regardless, it is a great point.
@@RiverRatArtifacts Some researchers think Late Archaic Motley points may be the technology that led to the Middle Woodland Snyders points. Motleys have narrower necks, but similar sweeping notches. They also think the Snyders technology may have led to the Late Woodland Jack's Reefs points, which are similar, usually thinner and usually with tighter notches, but still often having those wide sweeping notches. I do feel that this one is a small, Affinis Snyders, but it definitely resembles a Jack's Reef.
I mainly hunt Ky but my recommendation for you is to get familiar with the laws of the state you want to hunt as they all are different and allow certain things.
Killer finds, if that black point was obsidian, it would be rare in this area and had to be traded from far away, my granddaughter found one in Aurora, Indiana, near the river.
That black point is a killer! Looks like a Jack's Reef to me. Awesome find, both of those points.

Yep, I'm with leatherwoodcrafts, Snyders or Hopewell point and not Jack's Reef. Sweet finds!
I’d honestly forget about Snyder points . But I definitely agree.

You are on roll. Just found your channel. New subscriber.
I’m lucky to have a job that I get alot of time off. And can get out as often as I do.
Patriot Indiana here went fishing in a new spot today and found a huge pile of hot rocks today
Always a good sign
Awesome find. Where can you hunt in the Ohio river? KY side Ohio side? I would love to hunt there someday.

I don’t think it’s obsidian. I need to check it out with it dry and in the case.but I have found a couple made from obsidian here locally.
